    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

I have just completed an transaction with John. I am more than happy with how things went. There was a slight misunderstanding, (my fault) and John was extremely patient and kind! I cannot say enough about the guy! When it comes to his animals, they are top notch and i can finally vouch for that! As far as all the babble about how he talks to people, or hurts feelings......Nonsense! He's a man of his word, and HIGHLY TRUSTWORTHY!

Thank You John! This hobby needs more like you!

Babble? Nonsense? The proof is in John's own posts across many forums. While I am not surprised in the least you had a good transaction with John, lets keep it real about this aspect.

I dont think anyone (I know I never have) has ever questioned whether he was a straight up business person. Just that he lets his temper get the best of him sometimes.

quit trying to defend John here. Once these guys have their mind made up, there is nothing you can do to change it. Before you know it, they are going to find posts from 10 years ago and accuse you of being someone you aren't by your writing style or whatever they think they can find. They have no life outside of Fauna and therefore have time to do those types of things.

They don't like John because he called a turd a turd and then talked about the stinch the turd was putting off. Certain people here have a moral soap box and can't let the past be the past and act like they have never done anything wrong. They are mad because John tried to break up their circle j@#k party.

You and I know John is a good guy whether they like him or not.

There are a bunch of computer toughies here that let their big boy mouths override their little boy butts.

Now if being defended by the above out of control psycho is not the kiss of death I don't know what is. With friends like Jody Barnes one does not need enemies. :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Considering the source, that doesn't carry much weight.

I'm confused JimO.

Is jody saying john's a bit on the mentally retarded side or is jody saying that he's the mentally retarded on or is he saying that they are both mentally retarded?

IF jody is now saying that he is, that would explain much.

IF he is saying john is, that would also explain much.

But I really don't know if jody is smart enough to know that he, or anyone else for that matter, is mentally retarded. You know what I mean? It's not like he's smart himself or even anywhere near it when you give it consideration.
 
Wes you should use the more polite term Mental Adjustment Malady or it often used acronym M.A.D. and it would seem that both these guys suffer from this um social difficulty.

Tyree, I guess that makes you an A number one Spade!..

Thank you.

I too do NOT like to see things of this nature used as a way to "slam" people.

I think these days most everyone is related to someone with a disability of one sort or another.. So it is sad to see that people are still using this as a way to insult others.


BACK TO THE TOPIC AT HAND......


Yes John does go over board with some of his responses on here..

But that should not play to whether he has good animals or not. Just shows he has a temper. As many on here do.

If he had a good experience with John, Just let him say so guys.. sheesh.

ha ha ha
 
i would just like to say, that i don't come on fauna much. The Boi is a great idea, and i find it useful. I really don't know most of you, and it seems everyone had a side issue with A or B person. Continue on! Thats not my business. But i do find it rather annoying and unnecessary for everyone to add all of their negative feedback. Now if you had an issue with John a a business guy, please tell. As far as my comment on his forums actions, thats my opinion. It wasn't really added for all of you to feast on! Now i'll let you carry on, because i'm sure you won't change, but i see what people are talking about when the come over here!

Oh well.............no sweat off of my back!

enjoy yourselves trying to 1 up each other!

Then why not simply post your good guy post? Nobody stated anything negative about John's business. Sammy mentioned that on the first reply.
There was no need to open the door on his posting style. You made an opinion on how he posts and state "that's your opinion" but nobody else can add their own? Your opinion in that context wasn't about his business but others shouldn't be allowed to address it?

Now is that really necessary? This site is good enough for you to come post your opinion but as soon as someone expresses their own, you're going to start taking potshots at the site.

Your first post directed the topic. So, back on topic.

John has some fantastic animals. I have never heard of a bad deal with John.
John would probably be the first to tell you he can be a butt on the forums. Many will have problems with his posts. Some don't. In my opinion, that's all factual and he would probably agree with it all.

Jody, let me state that, without a doubt, that goes to show how little character and integrity you have. Jay and Jim were absolutely correct in surmising that you are mentally unstable. That is not an opinion. Rather, it is an observed fact. Your credibility is nil, and you have no one to blame but yourself. It shudders me to think of someone with a demonstrated propensity toward irrational thought and behavior claim they have been employed in law enforcement.

As for John, in his effort to circumvent his well deserved fine and suspension by, it seems we can also add "thief" to the monikers that describe him.
 
We all have different personalities, which makes the world a great and diverse place to live. It seems people with similar personalities tend to hang together, whether it is here on the net, or in person.

I would not socialize with John even if I lived next door to him, his personality and mine do not mesh well. From his defenders, we see what personalities do mesh with his. That being said, do I think he would rip someone off, no. Do I think it would be a good day for anyone if something went wrong in a transaction with John, again, no. That is based on his temperment only.

With all the people out there breeding and selling Balls now, my inclination is to do business with someone I can relate too, someone who has a good reputation, and someone I do not mind sending cash to, to help them stay in business. The only way John would get my business would be in person...
 
I wasn't going to reply here but since John chose to tell me to STF on a different forum when I responded to a question, I will now.
He is only nice if he is going to get a sale. He will flip flop on how he treats a person. One day he is nice to you and then next he is going off on some tirade. You never know how he is going to react. For that reason I would not do business with him. I have no doubt he has quality animals but his attitude is piss poor.
